Service Clubs'
Support Asked
For Scout Units
Scout Executive Rollle Quam Is
appearing belore several local
service clubs this week urging
their support In promoting the
organization of new scouting
units in Douglas District.
According to Quam the new age
limit, which reduces cub scout
ages from nine to eight years,
scouts from 12 to 11 years and
senior scouts from 15 to 14 years,
will require many new clubs to
accommodate the new scouts.
The first of a series of special
training meetings will be held
Wednesday, July 20, In the Hotel
Umpqua, when a group of Eugene
scout leaders will be here to con
duct the course. As many adults
as possible, whether or not they
have had previous scout experi
ence, are urged to attend the
meeting.
Quam, appearing before the Kt
wanls Club Tuesday noon and
Toastmasters Club that evening,
said that the number of troops in
the Douglas District has been in
creased from 29 to 43 since he
took over a year ago, and the en
rollment is up about 40 per cent.
There are now about 1,000 scouts
In the district, but this number
may well be doubled and even
tripled, considering the eligible
number of boys o( scout age. At
least 60 units will be needed In
this district, but the problem now
Is securing leaders, he said.
Roy Barnhart, organization
chairman, and his committee are
devoting much time to In-sure all
bovs of the required age who de
sire an opportunity to participate
in tne program.

that rigid supports
maintained under the
President had by-passed the Taft
Hartley labor law.
Republic and Bethlehem then
chimed in with rejections. They
echoed U. 3. steers reasons.
Bethlehem Steel told the Presi
dent In a telegram:
"We do not believe that any
such question, affecting as It
does, the welfare of our country
should he dealt with by a board
which Is not established in ac
cordance with the provisions of
the federal law (Taft-Hartley)
which expressly describes a pro
cedure for the handling of such
matters."
Plants Won't Close
U. S. Steel and Bethlehem, the
nation's two largest steel pro
ducers, said their rejection of the
resident proposal did not mean
however,

law.
Gore disputed claims of over
whelming Democratic support for
the Brannan plan trial run ana
predicted a bi-partlsaa group will
ram through nis sunsutuie Dm

ent law.
Sneaker Ravburn set the cru
cial debate to begin in the House
on Monday.
Wheat Quotas Canceled
Meanwhile, it was revealed that
assistants apparently jumped the
gun on Secretary urannan to
dav in announcing abandonment
of plans for invoking rigid mar
keting quotas on the laou wneai
crop.
The Production and Marketing
Administration, depart menial
agency which administers crop
production and price support pro
grams, sent telegrams to its state
Held otnces late yesieraay siai
lug that quotas were off because
of a deterioration In this year's
crop.
But Brannan's office said to
day the secretary, who must set
tle the matter, had not yet made
his decision. Aides conceded, how
ever, that there Is little likeli
hood he will decide to go ahead
with quotas.
Brannan is expected to an
nounce his decision after grain
markets close today.

Replying to the President,
Bethlehem said: "We will con

Sutherlin, Ore.
of Long Beach, Calif., said she
saw the fight. She said she saw
a man hit the man next to him
just once.
Stewardess Vicky Zelsdorf said
In a Long Beach hospital that
she owed her life to the tussle.
She said she gave up her seat to
the man who was struck. The
man in that seat was killed. She
said the two men had been fight
ing the day before also.
When Mrs. Zelsdorf saw they
were going to crash she threw a
blanket across her knees and ab
domen. Doctors said this was
her maternal Instinct to protect
her unborn child, which they
hoped to save. The stewardess
was seriously injured.
CAB Chief Peyton arrived on
the scene 90 minutes after the
crash. He said the plane was
making a normal approach for
a landing at Lockheed and was
on course, except that it was too
low. He said the altimeter was
working and that "there was no
apparent malfunctions of the
engines or structural failure of
the aircraft."
He has recommended a formal
hearing and said investigation at
the scene will continue several
days.
"I believe we know what caus
ed the crash." he said, adding that
the Informalion would come out
at the hearing. He declined to
disclose the reason before then.

The state kept alert against
fire hazards again today, as an
other day of high temperatures
and dangerously low humidities
prevailed.
But the wind direction gave
hope to foresters. What they
leared most was a stiff east
wind that would spread any
mall blaze; and the forecast
was for northwest breezes.
Temperatures hovered in the
nineties over much of Oregon
yesterday, and a maximum of 100
was reported by the slate forest
patrol at Grants Pass.

Portland Is using more than

There Is plenty of water in the
